Link to a machinima where the characters in a game start wondering what the hell they are doing there. "Why are we doing this?"
Yes I read about it on Boing Boing. As I try to always tell people, if you're not reading Boing Boing, then you should be.
Machinima I first understood when I attended a lecture by a Stanford librarian who was cataloging and constructing an online archive of such things as well as studying the sociological side of in-game communities. People manipulate computer games to turn the audio/visual output into a story, that's what machinima is. The Wikipedia article in the link above is really quite good.
Boing Boing today also had another machinima post. Here is the link.
And here is a link to a machinima "talk show" done from within a game called Halo.
Also see machinima.com for more.
